Dear God, A question to you! Can you amend the Law of Karma and Dharma?

This is one question which I cannot get an answer, from any of the books I have gone through. All books talk about Truth and Dharma and sometimes I wonder what is it all about. Is it merely a perception that one adopts based on situation or there any universal benchmark for these.

For a tiger that needs its prey killing and eating a deer is dharma. It can’t understand the pains that a deer would face while eating it. However it can’t starve without eating.

Then the question arises about the species. It’s an animal and not a human and so .Then for human which is considered to be the most blessed among the group is it dharma to eat even vegetables and fruits which are also considered to be living beings. Who knows the pain that a plant gets when you pluck a vegetable from it?

If we really follow ideal dharma then we can’t survive at all. We can’t even breathe because it kills many micro organisms in air.

May be that’s why one school of thought in spirituality says that birth is an outcome of sin and so you will be born again and again for the pains you have impacted on others till it gets balanced by your good deeds.

The biggest question is many people somehow feel and have this feeling that they were not so lucky in many aspects of life after tonnes of efforts (but still do their duty with dharma).

If they have to face for something that they have done in the past why should they face that when they are completely unaware of what they did?

They can’t justify to themself many things happening to them again and again.

Dear God, Can you amend this Law by adding one aspect “People will face problems of the same kind what they have done to others with full awareness and in the same life span, No Carry over Effect from past”
